IMOS The Intelligent Maintenance and Operations Systems (IMOS) Lab at EPFL is looking for a motivated and out-of-the-box thinking PhD researcher, (100%, in Lausanne, fixed-term) starting in September or upon agreement.
Project description The objective of this project is to develop novel methodologies based on physics-informed graph neural networks (PI-GNNs) to understand and model the impact of operational loads on system degradation at the compenent level in complex engineering systems, with a particular focus on wind turbines.
The research will focus on explicitly integrating physical laws, load dynamics, and degradation mechanisms into graph-based models, enabling a principled understanding of how operating conditions drive the evolution of system health over time.
